CULINARY TEMPERANCE,

Word OF Caution to Wives and Mothers
in Regard to Planting the Seeds of In
temperance I'm Their Food.
This is emphatically time when woman
should let her influence be felt, in the
strongest possible mnnner, and in every
direction, against the curse of the drinking
habit. Concerning the danger of using
alcohol for culinary purposes, Julia Col
man writes as follows:
The kitchen is very often the strong
hold of tie drink habit in this country,
from the fact that great many of our in
heri!ed and imported recipes give flavor
ing of wine or brandy, to say nothing Of
gin. rum, and whisky. These are often
carelessly copied, even by our religious
papers, aud as carelessly practiced by re-
ligious people. If they have their atten-
ton called to the matter, they may say that
the heat drives away tie alcohol, and moth
ing but the taste remains, never 8. eming to

feared-whether it creates in children O
familiarity with the liquors used, and thus
makes them in after years prey to the
drink habit; or whether it reawakens in the
reformed man the appetite which has done
him 80 much mischief; and which has
been with go much difficulty subdued.
A pleasing instance where this was hap
PLY avoid d was lately re- ated by Mrs. DIR.
Stephen Smith at q meeting in the Broad
way Tabernacle, New York, as follows: "A
guest, in whose welfare we were deeply in
terested, one day expressed to me lively
satisfaction because the 1nince pie served at
dinner had contained no trace of alcohol.
He had feared the ordeal, for if it had

Reasons For and Against Teetotalfsm

The following reasons in rhyme are given
by some people to justify their use of strong
drink:
Some drink to make them wide awake,
And some to maze them sleep;
Some drink because they merry are,
And some because they weep. .
Some drink because they're very hot,
And some because they're colds
Some drink to cheer them when they re young,
And some because they're DID,
Some drink to give them appetite,
And Bome to MD digestion;
Some whose doctors say it's ri int.
And some without a question.
Some drink when they o bargain make,
And some because OF loss
Some dtink when they their pleasures tako,
And others when they re- cross.
Some drink for sake OF company,
While others drink more sly;
And many drink, but never think
About the reason why.

ReWildered Geese.

Beetles and moths tluttcr fatally into
the flames of our lamps; and storm
driven swallows and sea-birds dash
blindly against the lighthouses on the
coast, and fall dead upon the rocks be-
low. A sparrow has been seen to fly
into a room in the evening, and per
sistently and painfully scorch its wings
by repeatedly flying into the blazing
gas; and RULED grouse one winter
evening was known to fly headlon9
through q pane of glass into the hall
Of a house in thickfy-settled village.
Doubtless records of innumerable SINH
lar instances could be collected but it
is not often that whole flock of wild
geese startle man SO strangely as the
flock thus described in the Hartford
Times:
Among the many folklore weather
theOries-the gOOse-boncs, the muskrat-
houses, and the husks on the corn
there is one, directly connected with
the flight of the wild geese, in which
some observers seem inclined to be-
lieve. If the geese generally come
down from their hyperborcan sOlitudes
very early, say before the end of Octo-
bcr it is held to Indicate an early set
ting-in of winter, and hard and long
one, too. If, on the other hand, they
make their southwark emigration late
toward the close of November, and
come scattering along at irregular in
tervals, the fact is regarded as indicat-
ing more open winter If this idea
has any foundation in fact, this winter
ought to be a good one to test it. New
er have the geese acted so unreasOna-
bly, or so strangely. Beginning their
migration with a few fiocks ut the close
of October, they seem to have kept it
up in scattering, irregular way, until
the present time, about tie middle Of
December. During the driving snow
storm of Tuesday, Dee. {. Il large flock
OF these migrating birds was reported
as coming down, blinded and confused
by the snow, into a farmers orchard
i'll Litchtield county, between New
Hartford and WinSted. Attracted by
the din they made, the owner went out
and found a flock of wild geese blindly
tapping and Hopping about in the
thickly-falling snow, and one. which
was Knocked down by flying against
the limb Of al apple-trec, he succeeded
in capturing, while the rest got up and
off again. But the flock had evidently
lost their bearings in the thick. driving
storm. The queer thing seemed to be
that any flock Of geese should be such
geese as to tarry in the far north so
late in December. Usually they come,
the great body of them, full month
earlier, flying over Connecticut before
the middle of November.-S,CiSsC Cross.

When early in the 10th century the Span
iards found their way to this part OF the
mainland of America, they came IN view OF
nations cultured high above the level Of those
they had hitherto met with in the New
World.
Here were not rude and simple tribes like
the islanders OF the Antilles, but nations
with organized armies, official administrators,
courts of justice, high agricultural and me-
ehanical arts, and, what struck the white
men especially, stone buildings whose archl-
lecture and sculpture were often of dimen-
sions and elaborateness to astonish the build
ers and sculptors of Europe. How popula'
ton of millions could inhsbit world whose
very existence had been till then unknown
to ceographers and historians, and how its
nations could have reached so high grade
of barbaric industry aud grandeur, was a
problem which naturally excited the
liyeliest curiosity Of scholars. E.

Hernandez and Acosta shared the opinion
of their time that the great fossil bones
found IN Mexico we're the remains of giants,
and it was argued that, as before the deluge
there were giants on the earth, therefore
Mexico was peOpled from the Old World in
antediluvian times.
On the other hand, the multitude of Amer
lean languages suggested that the migration
to America took place after the building OF
the tower of Babel, and Siguenza arrived at
the curiously definite result that the Next
cans were descended from Napthuhim, son
of Mizraim and grandson of Noah, who left
Egypt for Mexico shortly after the confusion
of tongues.
